Haas Parameter 430 W RATIO (STEPS/UNIT)

Haas Parameter 430 W RATIO (STEPS/UNIT)

Number of steps of encoder per unit of travel. Encoder steps supply four (4) times their line count per revolution. Thus, an 8192 line encoder and 6mm pitch screw give: 8192 x 4 x 25.4 / 6 = 138718 (5 steps per unit inch/mm ratio). For the EC-300 and MDC-1, this parameter is set to 57344 and controls the rotation of the pallet. When a pallet change is performed, pallet rotates 180 degrees. It is essential this parameter is checked after a software upgrade
